“I use a lot of MSN and forums to communicate with fellow students and teacher, where I can ask questions and discuss with my colleagues” (Lead)

“You chat to your friends on MSN to see if you missed anything if you don’t go in.” (BLUPS)

“The people in my course created a Facebook group where we discuss logistical stuff like availability of books or clarification of certain concepts or sometimes even outlines of formats etc” (Thema)

According to a recent report from mobile manufacturer Ericsson, studies show that:

“by 2015, 80% of people accessing the Internet will be doing so from mobile

devices.”Perhaps more important for education:

“Internet- capable mobile devices will outnumber computers within the next

year.”Johnson, L., Smith, R., Willis, H., Levine, A., and Haywood, K., (2011). The 2011 Horizon

Report - Austin, Texas: The New Media Consortium.

Competency = basic skills in the digital realm Literacy = capabilities which fit an individual for living, learning & working in a digital societyJISC LLiDA project - www.jisc.ac.uk/whatwedo/projects/elearningllida.aspx

Digital Literacies - Digital Natives?

‣Learners’ ICT skills are less advanced that educators think (Nicholas et al. 2008, JISC 2008-9)

‣Learners’ engagement with digital media is complex and differentiated (Bennet et al. 2008, Hargittai, 2009)

‣Learners’ experience many difficulties transposing practices from social context into formal learning (Cranmer 2006)

‣Active knowledge building and sharing e.g. writing wikis, tagging, reviewing, recommending, repurposing, are minority activities to which most learners are introduced by educators (Selwyn 2009)

‣Some aspects of learners’ everyday practice with technology are at odds with practices valued in traditional academic teaching (Beetham 2009)

Digital LiteraciesSupporting learners in the 21stCentury ‣ Effective integration of digital literacies in Learning and

Teaching Strategy

‣ Tutor skills and confidence with technology is critical to learners’ development

‣ Support in migrating to more ICT based study practices

‣ Digital literacies need to be supported as learners engage in academic and authentic tasks
